so...
You don't consider the lack of orange mark between the eye and the insertion of the wing to be reliable?
I know, it is preferable to get the abdomen!

As I mentioned in the comment on the first picture...
I can't rule out tredecula without an image of the abdomen. The black pleura only rules out tredecim and neotredecim.

ah, tredecula...
Well, I was all over the Eno River area during the 2011 emergence. There were millions of tredecassini, in deafening choruses everywhere. I only found one tredecula (not along the Eno), and I think I heard them at that site, though it was hard to filter out in the din:

I guess I made the ID based on that probability--based on my lack of discovery of tredecula and (almost complete) lack of hearing them.
